HOW-TO:Sync multiple libraries/Contents
If you use your device (notebook or mobile iOS device) in multiple situations, you can create multiple profiles. You can use one profile at home, using a central MySQL database and another profile for use when travelling.
First create two profiles. Configure one profile using a central database and one for local use (while travelling).
Create profiles
Configure the Master User profile:
- Open the Profile settings
- Modify the Master User profile
- Rename the profile, for example "Portable"
Configure the Second profile:
- Create a new profile
- Enter a name for the second profile, for example "Home"
- Accept the default profile path
- Select "Separate" for "Media info" and "Media sources"
- Enable the login screen to select a profile on startup
See Profiles for more information about the profile feature.
Configure the portable profile
Create a new file "advancedsettings.xml" in userdata/profiles/<username>/:
<advancedsettings> <videodatabase> <type>mysql</type> <host>***.***.***.***</host> <port>3306</port> <user>xbmc</user> <pass>xbmc</pass> </videodatabase> <musicdatabase> <type>mysql</type> <host>***.***.***.***</host> <port>3306</port> <user>xbmc</user> <pass>xbmc</pass> </musicdatabase> </advancedsettings>
